Chief Superintendent Kenneth Kwok says some calls the police got during the Yuen Long mob attack may have been about illegal parking. The police said today that only around 30 calls received during the July 21 Yuen Long attack were included in the calculation of last year's emergency response time in the New Territories, which showed officers had responded within 15 minutes to close to 98 percent of calls received, RTHK reports. Speaking on the radio program today, Kwok said not all of the 24,000 emergency calls police got on that night were about the Yuen Long Station attack. Due to the large number of calls, only 1,100 calls were connected, and more than 30 of them involved the Yuen Long sub-district, he said. These 30 calls for help were finally included in the calculation of the rate of calls for help, he said.
